Vibrant college life that you'll remember for a lifetime.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is available throughout campus (except in bathrooms), and every department has well-equipped labs (note that lab supervisors may occasionally give you bad advice, so be cautious). Classrooms also have good infrastructure, including teaching boards and projectors. The library is accessible except at night (it is also open at night during exams). Additionally, there is a 24/7 reading room. New hostels are very luxurious, old ones are decent. The mess food is very good, as there are various o...

A beautiful campus that anyone would love.

Infrastructure: Hostels for first year are decent but those of second, third, and fourth years are not good. The rooms are very small, and the washrooms are not very clean and are sinking too. The classrooms could have been a little better, as even some of their two and three-year ITs have better classrooms, and we do not have any synthetic race track so that's also a loophole. One more thing is that though healthy, the taste of the mess food is not good.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is very good. Our college has the famous James Thomson building, which is famous across the country. The Wi-Fi is very good. Wi-Fi is available in hostels and classrooms. Hostels are better, but three students live in a single room.

Infrastructure: For our department/course, we have fast Wi-Fi, modern labs, smart classrooms, and rich central libraries. Hostel facilities are decent enough with 24/7 internet. Even the mess food is good and decent. Medical centres are always available. Coming to the sports section, it is excellent and well-maintained.

Excellent infrastructure, but dissatisfied with placements and internships.

Infrastructure: The course is a complete 4 out of 5. Classrooms are amazing with excellent seating, AC, and heaters in winters. The practical labs cater to job-ready skills that mechanical engineers require, such as CAD modeling and sessions on 3D printing. Hostels are 3.5 out of 5 because the management is good, but the rooms could be more modern. The Wi-Fi system and balconies score 5 out of 5. The canteen and mess food are good, both 3.5 out of 5. Medical facilities and sports are excellent, 5 out of 5.

Sometimes, prioritize college over the desire.

Infrastructure: Departmental infrastructure is average, not like the whole campus, with a limited lab for the core branches. Wi-Fi enabled departments and classrooms are, on average, not equipped with many facilities, like comfortable seating. Libraries are there, which are accessible all the time. Hostel facilities are just okay, it depends on which hostel you are living in. Canteen and mess food have average taste. Sports facilities are there where you can explore all games.

A short review of IIT Roorkee and its earth science department.

Infrastructure: Department facilities are decent with well-equipped labs, and all the instruments work properly. Classrooms are also mostly tidy. Regarding the hostel, for me it's been 3 years now on the campus so I have experience living in 3 hostels. I think the best one is Jawahar by far in terms of mess, canteen, and extracurricular activities.

I am satisfied with the campus and faculty. The core placements are not satisfactory.

Infrastructure: Facilities and infrastructure are good. There is Wi-Fi on the whole campus. Labs are well-maintained with all the modern equipment. The condition of classrooms of our department is a little bit deteriorated. The mess food is good, and the canteen food is reliable. There are good facilities for sports. Medical facilities are the best, and we can consult a doctor at any time.

No, you cannot apply for B.Des programme at IIT Roorkee even if you have cleared the UCEED Entrance Exam because Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics are compulsory subjects in 10+2. But you can apply for B.Des programme at IIT Bombay, IIT Delhi, IIT Hyderabad and IIT Indore.
